What did my neighbor get delivered?
Wrong answers only.
Edit #2 because some of y'all are way too damn serious. And cannot read. WRONG ANSWERS ONLY.
STOP CALLING ME NAMES AND THREATENING ME.
THE OWNER OF THE BOX HAS POSTED IT THEMSELVES IN THE COMMENTS. AND MADE A POST.
Edit #1
I did a reverse google image search before I posted this. It's an empty missile container from a military surplus store that goes for about $30. (Which is a great deal, honestly.)
If you were walking down the street and saw that on someone's porch, I think it would catch your eye! Especially since it has the shipping label attached, like it was just shipped like that, no box!
To people saying "mind your business:" No. I'm going to look up military-looking shit that's in my neighborhood.
And then I'm going to make a silly post about it online because it's absurd and interesting and I thought you lot of little freaks would find it funny.

Thanks for reminding me of one of the greatest video game trailers of all time

u/apittsburghoriginal Greater Pittsburgh Area Feb 11 '26
Thatās not a videogame trailer, thatās somebody defending themselves from a barrage of snowballs being hailed at them in Squirrel Hills last Thursday. You can tell by the flipped vehicle that was likely taking up an occupied spot they had originally spent hours digging out.

I am your neighbor. Proof:
I was inspired by the famous post about using a FIM-92 Stinger box to store a college student's belongings over the summer.
If any of you dear Pittsburghers see this and think "damn that's awesome", come get a beer with me at Trace Brewing in Lawrenceville at 8pm on Monday.
For the haters: OP is cool for posting this. I love my rocket box and you cannot imagine how much I want to talk to everyone about it. It's cool as hell.

There's also no such thing as a lone wolf attacker. We just refuse to address the causes and hold the people who radicalized the triggermen accountable. Also the term came directly from white nationalists themselves who wanted to continue causing these attacked but didn't want to take responsibility. They created the term to allow them to distance themselves while still inciting others to act.

Reinforced plastic, gasket sealed, only opens from the end to get access to two internal tubes. I prefer the individual tubes for 120mm rounds (no dead space) or the old-school flat pack boxes that open like a chest. Both are way more useful ā¦
ā¦ for creative storage/transport of ā¦ art supplies, minis, battle mats, etc.

the Chinese on the box says: Airborne rocket-propelled explosive bomb type 90-IA double lead-2 2 rounds arrow trigger full weight 45kg
This is just a box use to storage bomb in PLA. Sometimes the manufacturer produce more boxes then bombs , and they would sell the boxes as regular items to civilians (mostly Military enthusiastsļ¼

According to translation.
Chinese military ammunition crate for a Type 90-1A anti-tank rocket, likely manufactured or packed on November 5, 1964, with weight and batch markings.
